To be honest, I like this community even better and the level of insight is the same or better. Cheers to everyone who makes this forum the great place that it is.
I don't think we do actual serious theorycrafting enough to be Elitist Jerks level. I don't see many spreadsheets in GD.
I would really like it if there was more theorycrafting and less pokemon, though. Just sayin'

Reading that makes me think it was either written by nyx(3) or a it's just a big coincidence.
There was a huge discussion about this exact topic a few days ago in GD.
Looking through the reddit comments, I think only one of the hundreds I looked at mentioned TL. I'm still shocked at how low the exposure to our subforum seems to be.

Reading the last few pages makes me want to move to the US when I graduate. No one here knows about games

Rogue section on Elitist Jerks was so legit. Remember just spreadsheeting many a night.

I think his point is he already views this forum like those other forums, even though there is no actual skill based restriction from taking part in the conversations.

It doesn't matter though. There are like... 3 diamond players on TL.

Spreadsheets are welcome if you want to post them! No one's stopping anyone from breaking down all the numbers.

Oh man... Then it could actually LOOK like i'm working while I'm shirking my government duties for esports...
This is changes everything.

What about that Team Liquid site? Any good theory crafting fling around or only phat writeups from tournaments? Are people bummed out since they dissed LoL and threw themselves at DotA2?
There are decent champion discussion threads, but it's still filled with shitposting and low quality posts from either players with lack of experience and/or insight or just pointless posts here and there.
How excited are you guys for Fairy type and sky battles?

Well I did that earlier today, felt like a 3.0 Ret Paladin.
Edit: Why is Clefairy not a Fairy-type?

That's not even remotely true.
There are a LOT of diamond players actually, it's just that 'Diamond' tends to cover a wide range of MMR.
Either way there was some discussion in that thread that made the point that LoL is less available to hardcore mathematical analysis due to lack of combat logs and such. I think Yanger mentioned that as well.
Edit: And the other thing is you're not standing still and trying to measure DPS. A tleast in WoW thre were periods of time where that analysis kind of maters. Situations like that don't exist in LoL. Way too many variables involved.

How do you teamfight as quinn?I tried her a few times and if you don't win early she seems kinda useless.You can chase after they are low but that's about it.

<3'd EJ Rogue section. Learned everything I knew about DPS and item/build efficiency there, even though I didn't contribute much to the discussion.

Probably will be all things considered. They should make Pika/Raichi Fairy type for the hell of it. Gotta push that branding.

We don't necessarily need a "Diamonds Only" subforum but just a more analytical approach to the game. tbh, TL GD is just a bunch of guys shooting the shit and we talk about a ton of random shit, like pokemon.
If we want to be taken more seriously, then perhaps we should do more srs League discussion.

nty shitposting + trollposting = path to success

So is Aathrox as fast and fun as he looks or what?

Every time I try to play Maokai in s3 I just weep because his clear is so shit he feels snowbally as all hell with how much he relies on levels 2-3 ganks to suceed (as in bring kills, not just flashes) for his own development. T_T
That change bringing more HP to the big monsters hurt him really badly.
